Festival 2026
Mother of…
UK, 2021

Directed by
Istanbul Queer Art Collective
Running time
10 mins

Filmed at Newington Green beside A Sculpture for Mary Wollstonecraft—dubbed “the most polarising artwork of 2020”—Mother of… refuses binaries by multiplying viewpoints. Blending sound art, performance documentation, and graphic text, it layers readings of Wollstonecraft and Jeanette Winterson into an intentionally overwhelming audiovisual barrage that forces arbitrary “sides” and exposes the frustration of polarisation.

Director Bio



Istanbul Queer Art Collective (founded 2012) is a London-based live art collective formed by Tuna Erdem and Seda Ergül. Treating performance documentation as an art form in itself, their practice spans durational and intimate works that morph into sound, video, and installation, informed by queer failure and radical drag. They have presented work internationally across Europe and the UK.
